Phillies hire Dave Dombrowski; Why did Clippers pay Paul George?

Today’s word of the day is ‘country’ as in country music as in Nashville, TN, as in Nashville wanted a baseball team and Dave Dombrowski was supposed to be the guy that got the team there. Well, now he’s been hired as the president of baseball ops for the Philadelphia Phillies. Wait! I thought he was committed to Nashville! How did this happen? Was this a mistake (0:06)? Los Angeles Clippers signed Paul George to a massive 4-year, $176M extension! Holy smokes! Why did a team that’s as dysfunctional as the Clippers sign George to a deal like that (12:37)? So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me if I agree that professional athletes should get preferential treatment of the COVID vaccine (19:30). Review - Sound of Metal (37:00). Happy Hanukkah! Let’s do 8 MLB predictions to end the show (42:15)! #waittosee -------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.   Follow David on Twitter: @DavidPSamson  To watch David on CBS Sports HQ visit https://www.cbssports.com/live/ To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ https://www.youtube.com/nothingpersonalwithdavidsamson Learn more about your ad choices.
